Clever use of good song pieces that they couldn't develop into full songs.
In the late 70s, my band did the middle of this medley, from Mean Mr. Mustard to She Came In... Way too hard to reproduce the stuff before & after, especially with my limited guitar skills at that time. (I wanted to play guitar so I hired a keyboard player, although I was a much better keyboardist than guitarist.) There is so much orchestration we couldn't possibly due with the tech available then.
They were fun to sing, too.
Abvwy Road us my 2nd favorite album by them. Only Rubber Soul beats it, fir me.
